| Abstract | Monopiles and tripod or jacket structures are favorized foundation solutions for offshore wind energy converters. The piles of these structures are subject to intensive cyclic loading by wind and wave actions. Degradation of pile capacity as well as pile stiffness and accumulation of deflections can occur and has to be considered in the design according to German guidelines. The state of knowledge regarding the behavior of piles under cyclic horizontal loading is discussed and methods to account for cyclic load effects in the design are presented. |
